Dignity Named Charity of the Year

Dignity has been recognised as Charity of the Year in The Australian Charity Awards 2025. The Australian Charity Awards program recognises charitable organisations that have achieved outstanding results through initiatives that have significantly benefited charitable causes, culminating in an overall winner for Australian Charity of the Year.
 
This award recognises the innovative design of the Ready To Work program, the dedication and passion of the entire Dignity team, and the impact it has made in the lives of people experiencing homelessness.

“We are honoured to be recognised as Charity of the Year in The Australian Charity Awards 2025. Dignity’s Ready To Work Housing program was designed to break the cycle of homelessness by combining safe, stable housing with employment pathways and wraparound support. Since launching in 2022, we’ve supported over 130 individuals with the support needed to find a path forward out of homelessness through employment. This recognition affirms the power of collaboration and innovation in creating lasting change. We hope to continue scaling this evidence-based model so more people experiencing homelessness can secure long-term housing stability.”
